I have t-minus 13 days and 22 hours until my finals begin.
I have spent a grand total of 6 hours studying for Medieval German and close to 0 studying for EU Policy, which is going to be equally as difficult. This is akin to needing to dig a hole to China and stopping about 3 feet down.
Two other much, MUCH less important finals are also demanding just enough of my attention to cause me undue and unwanted stress and irritation. My work ethic is dying fast and there is no good place to study.
I have a severe head cold that, after beginning as a moderate sore throat, has effectively taken up residence in my nose, which is plugged yet constantly running and which will not respond to any amount of Benadryll or kleenex. My ears are plugged and my head is swimming from all the drugs I'm on. Today in class I stared off into space and actually slept with my eyes open.
My entire body is out of whack. My immune system has gone on vacation since I got here 5 months ago, my hair has mysteriously slowed growth to a FRACTION of the rate it used to, and I've actually noticed that it's falling out in the shower. I'm almost always tired and therefore running almost constantly on coffee. I don't want to go anywhere, I don't want to do anything, and I don't want to see anyone. I am apathetic in every area of my life.
Is the semester over yet?

Wow, what a bummer. I'll be praying for you, and in the mean time.... lay off the coffee! It's about the worst thing for you right now. Try to get on a good sleep schedule, and eat well at the right times, otherwise this cold will take over even worse and you won't be able to study at all. If you can get some extra virgin coconut oil buy it and cook with it a lot -- even put it on toast or veggies like butter. Coconut oil is naturally anti-fungal, anti-bacterial, anti-viral and boosts your immune system sky high. I'm really sorry Matthew. Bummer drag.
